Hehehe…it’s that time of the year again…days before I turn a year older (officially) and more white hair grows. As per tradition, below is my wishlist. Kinda short this year since I don’t really want anything except more salary? Mel’s 2012 Birthday Wishlist: Black make up brush holder (foldable for travel and easy storage) –...
Singapore F1 Grand Prix 2012 Experience
I’ve always avoided F1 because it’s crowded, noisy and I simply don’t really bother much about racing. I’d rather be the one racing than watch cars do laps in front of me while I wear ear plugs. Anyway, I decided to go to this year’s F1 race simply because I wanted to watch Maroon 5...
Restaurant review – San Sui Contemporary Japanese
It’s one of my bestie’s birthday so we decided to celebrate it at San Sui, located at Clarke Quay. Sing had been there previously for a corporate tasting and said that it was good and she also had some discount vouchers. So…off it was to San Sui. They were having a DBS/POSB card promotion for...
Weddings, weddings, weddings
Everyone around me seem to be getting married! 1 colleague will be getting married on 30 Sep, another on 2 Nov and my Cubey will be getting married on 3 Nov!! Oct is a ‘free’ period but it involves getting ready for Cubey’s wedding since she tasked me with making jewellery for the bridesmaids and...
Review – Carpenter & Cook
Went to the soft launch of Carpenter & Cook, a cafe/ furniture shop started by Shen, Eunice and Phoebe. I happen to know Shen and Phoebe through my bro during my 2.5 mth stay in London in 2009. Check out the blast from the past! Doesn’t the above look like a living room from the...

{Oct 1983} x The Bouquet People – Project VDay Sneaks
It has been months of planning with The Bouquet People and a week of (almost) non-stop jewellery making (my right hand still feels a little cramped…hahaha) but it’s almost done! We did our photo shoot yesterday and here’s a sneak as to what’s in store for 2012! Above, our photographer Conrad setting up and checking...
Googlism!!
Check this out…was invited down to Google Singapore’s Holiday Gathering and Open House last Thu (yup, when MRT decided to break down) at their new digs at Asia Square – part of the new buildings at the Marina Bay Financial district. Google hired the same photography group that took those instant-print photos at Wenqing’s wedding! ...
Christmas Wishlist 2011
Let the countdown to Christmas begin!! I’m pretty simple…this year’s wishlist is going to be the same as my birthday’s: subsidy for my LASIK. I’ve already done it, but to pay over $3k for anything is no joke. Unless you’re a millionaire, which I’m unfortunately not. I will gladly accept other things and it is...
